I mentioned I had picked up some items in the sale recently, and here they are. All the tops are from Noa Noa where I have learned you have to size down, they are very generous with their sizing! I plan to wear them tucked into high waisted skirts or just with jeans. The skirt and […]

Resolution Revolution
A whole year has once again come and this year I decided to put resolutions off the menu. I committed myself to a resolution revolution. I do normally make a list – here is a flashback from 2009 which did make me to consider one exception to the no resolution rule (No more yellow eye shadow, […]
The Colour Orange
I have not worn orange for about 10 years. I’m not sure exactly why as my wardrobe is bursting with a rainbow of shades. Orange has just never been that interesting to me. As a hair colour, on the other hand, I have always been a bit obsessed (Hi red-headed friends who read this, I […]
DIY – Vintage Book Bag
My latest DIY was inspired by some of those beautiful Olympia Le Tan embroidered book cover clutch bags. While I am a fan of embroidery, it is a skill I have not yet dared to schedule into my overly ambitious craft plans. One of these plans was to try and make a bag out of […]
Spring Denim
Spring is here and I have the jeans to prove it! I have rummaged around various thrift stores searching for the perfect light denim to wear with plimsols, loose tees and freckles in the warmer weather. All I seem to find has either been of the mom-jeans variety (which I have been known to rock […]
Wintery Mints
Saturday morning was started off at a gym class with my overly perky mother. I have no clue how me and my brother came to be born to such morning people. After showers we headed out to get one of my christmas gifts. Yarn! I know, I know, there has been a lot of knitting […]
Long Hair Tip – Braided Bun
I made this braided bun a while back, not expecting much. To my surprise it looked very sophisticated and put together despite being a quick and easy fix. I had worn braids that day and wasn’t up for wearing my hair down in an elvish frizz (long hair + braided waves = Lord of […]
Baroque your Socks off
My sincerest apologies for the dad joke post title, but it had to be done. Or not. Either way it’s too late now, so let’s move on! Autumn has reached Sweden and I have been embracing the season with long sleeves, warm socks, as well as one too many cups of peppermint tea. I made […]
The pastel haired fairy
A few months back when the sun was shining and my feet were constantly black from going barefoot, I turned into a pastel haired fairy. Over the summer my hair was dip-dyed various shades of pink and lavender and the phases of washing colours out had brought on some interesting shades. This particular day I […]
Stockholm in Grey
Last weekend my parents and I took a trip into Stockholm for some aimless wandering and “fika” at the top of Kulturhuset for a birdseye view of the city centre. Seeing as the weather has gotten a bit more autumnal, but feeling not quite ready for dreary fall colours, I pulled out this pastel Minna […]
Changes
I’ve just discovered the new updater. FINALLY BLOGGER! Big pictures and easier posting (hopefully) here I come! This picture is one of hopefully many to come of my recent trip to Barcelona! It was fantastic and I want to go back as soon as possible.
